The secret of becoming a master of physiognomy

The secret of becoming a master of physiognomy

The art of physiognomy has a long history, and anecdotes, stories, and unofficial histories are common. The Records of the Grand Historian records that Xiang Yu had double pupils; unofficial histories say that Liu Bang's mother had pubic hair three feet long; anecdotes state that Wu Zetian's pubic hair was as big as a tile; the New Book of Tang says that Liu Wenjing knew Emperor Taizong through physiognomy. Such anecdotes are everywhere, which shows the prevalence of physiognomy in China.

In general, physiognomy techniques are used to determine the five sense organs, six bowels, twelve zodiac signs, 36 body parts, and hundreds of annual fortunes. There is a principle of analyzing the shapes of the eyes. For example, if you look at the eyes, you can use the 36 animals to represent them. In this way, all the five sense organs can be used, such as a lion's nose. It is a magnificent sight, with clever names, but it is not something that ordinary people can understand. But the probability of success is low and it only adds to your troubles.

There are only four methods in practical physiognomy techniques: structure, spirit, complexion, and voice.

1. The structure is the main part of physiognomy, which is divided into face, body and palm

1. Face consists of five sense organs, six organs, three stops, twelve palaces and thirty-six parts. Face occupies a very important position in life. Among them, the eyes and nose, the essence of the five facial organs, are the extreme of the twelve parts. Zeng Guofan said that fame lies in the eyebrows, nobility lies in the eyes, wealth lies in the nose, happiness lies in the ears, and perfection lies in the voice. The idioms "clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, insight like looking into fire, nose like a cut tube, mouth like painted cinnabar" indicate that the eyes are the property of the face, and are responsible for wealth, longevity, wisdom, stupidity, and other hard indicators. Special reminder, however, if you ask what success or failure is, there is no better way than to read books after practice and practice after reading books.

2. Among the physical features, the most reasonable one is to use the Five Elements. For example, people with the wood type are noble, people with the metal type are blessed, and people with the water type are both rich and noble. In the shape, water is round and blunt, fire is pointed and raised, wood is tall and beautiful, and metal is square, which are similar to the sand in geography. However, the shape is not mostly pure, and there are many impurities. If a person's figure is not round enough and is pointed and long, then it is a pattern of both water and fire. The mystery of these changes can be explained in physiognomy books and verified in practice, so just experience it on your own.

3. Palmistry and miscellaneous physiognomy. There are muscles, bones, textures, stripes, marks and other items in palmistry, which can be verified. But compared with the face and body, it is only a reference and auxiliary, not the main part of the human body. A few bored children talk about palmistry, but they are superficial and stupid. In addition to palmistry, there are still many other names such as breast appearance, navel appearance, skin appearance, flesh appearance, bone appearance, genitals appearance, anus appearance, etc. For reference only.

The above pattern can account for 60 points in physiognomy, and the eyes on the face alone account for 25 points. Special instructions.

2. Spirit

Spirit is the inner expression of physiognomy. Such as temperament, expression, and energy. Zeng's physiognomy book has unique insights into the spirit, such as those who are clear and peaceful, those who are strong and angry, those who are superficial and short-sighted, those who are dull and weak, those who look sideways, those who are elegant as if drunk, those who are sad and resentful, those who are frightened and at a loss, and other insights into the spirit. You can practice them more. The spirit is the appearance and temperament, which is responsible for wealth, wisdom and stupidity, and accounts for about 15 points in the physiognomy score.

3. Complexion

The complexions include blue, red, yellow, green, orange, purple, white, etc., which are intricate and changeable. They are mainly used to deduce the good and bad fortune of the passing year, month, and day. Complexion is changeable, changing with people's hearts, environment, progress and retreat. Sexual exertion, sleepless nights and long hours can all change your complexion. Complexion is like the changes in the weather, with unpredictable wind and rain, which can determine a person's temporary fortunes and misfortunes. The score is 10 points.

4. Sound

Perfection lies in the voice. According to my experience, those who die young usually have too big a discrepancy between their voice and their body shape. For example, if a person with the metal body shape has a tall body but a low, slow and breathless voice, he or she is prone to unexpected disasters. The sounds are Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu, which represent gold, wood, water, fire and earth respectively. However, there are not many completely pure sounds, and mixed sounds are common, such as the combination of fire and earth, and the combination of metal and water. Wood is high and clear, earth is dull and slow, water is smooth and flowing, gold is silver and jade, fire is dry and high, etc. Grasp carefully and observe the gains and losses. Sound controls a person's life span, fortune and luck, accounting for about 15 points.

Therefore, a master of physiognomy should not be obsessed with a certain part, such as talking about the palm line or the rest line. He should grasp the overall changes so as not to make mistakes.

Photo book review

1. The Ma Yi statue is a treasure of physiognomy from the Five Dynasties. It is like the classic of fate books, including structure, spirit (such as Bodhidharma's physiognomy is the most exciting), voice, complexion, and is magnificent and unprecedented. This book is a culmination of the previous generations' style and a great treasure to enlighten later generations. Later generations should not miss it.

2. The Great Unification of Human Relations, recorded in Yuebo Cave. The physiognomy books before the Five Dynasties were based on the structure and expression of the physiognomy, but they were narrow-minded and could not achieve great things.

3. Water Mirror Fairy, it is rumored that Mr. Wang Chuanshan also studied it. Shui Jing was a famous scholar in the late Han Dynasty, and it was he who recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei. This book still adheres to the form and contains many historical allusions, such as Xu Fu's fortune-telling, which is mediocre in style and difficult to become a great writer.

4. Liu Zhuang's physiognomy was written by an imperial master during the Yongle period. His understanding of the structure in the book, such as body parts, is very accurate, and his inferences on complexion are also very reasonable. The only flaw is that he slanders women. If we look at today's girls based on this book, almost all of them are slutty and promiscuous. Catch them all in one swoop. Therefore, the practical value of this book is not suitable for women.

5. The Iron Knife of Physiognomy, which discusses the art of physiognomy, is the most boring. It is only for reference as it is not intended to treat illnesses. With the development of medicine today, this book is of little value. Moreover, the language is sharp, and it was written by a person with the "Shangguan" (Injured Officer) disease, and was narrated by a doctor of the Qing Dynasty.

7. Physiognomy is always true. This book has exquisite writing, gorgeous words, and is fluent and unrestrained. It covers all details, and is accurate in discussing wealth and poverty. However, the facial expressions, such as lying, walking, talking and laughing, are the result of daydreaming with eyes closed. The book is filled with gossip from all walks of life, so it can be used for reference. There are many mistakes if you delve into it.

8. Pingyuan physiognomy was created by Mr. Tang in the Republic of China. You Ping was well-versed in both Chinese and Western learning, and attached great importance to empirical research. In terms of physiognomy, his work on structure, voice, and complexion was unprecedented. However, his chapter on palmistry was full of gems, and was a pioneering work in the later study of palmistry. The author combined Western bone theory with philosophical analysis, and his words were beautiful, making it a top-notch work.
